"It was a good night,' Kyle Hirst said. "We are having a lot of fun racing together, and we have a lot of speed. I think we are good enough to win a couple of these things, and looking forward to getting THE into victory lane."

Locked into the show due to his third place finish back on May 17th, Hirst would finish fourth in the Pole Shuffle, meaning he would take the green flag from the second row on Saturday night.

Jumping into third, Hirst would give chase to the lead duo of Rico Abreu and Dominic Scelzi in the early goings. Getting into second in traffic, Hirst's efforts would be negated and he would go back to third.

Back underway, the Paradise, CA driver would continue to run in the third position until a late restart saw Bud Kaeding get the best of him and relegate him to fourth.

Unable to get back on the podium, Hirst would take the checkered flag with a fourth place finish to cap the night.

"We would have loved to have been back up on the podium, but great night of racing," Hirst added. "Great event that Peter Murphy puts on, and glad we were able to be a part of it."

"It feels great to get better each night out," Kyle Hirst said. "It is a blast racing with Steven Tiner, and all of our friends and I cannot wait to get this team our first win."

Taking part in two nights of action at Stockton Dirt Track, Hirst would open Friday night up by earning quick time honors in his time trial group, and was the second quickest driver overall.

Heat race action saw the Paradise, CA pilot pick up a third place finish aboard the THE/GP Development/Larry Davis Farms entry. Enduring an issue that they were unable to get repaired in time for the Dash, Hirst would be scored eighth and would line up in the fourth row for the feature event.

Getting off to a nice start, Hirst would work his way forward and find himself up in the fourth position late in the race. Losing a spot on the restart, KH would end up falling back to finish sixth.

Running third in the early stages of the race, Hirst would find himself back in fourth at one point as Tim Kaeding was able to sneak by him for the last spot on the podium.

Keeping his wits, Hirst would work around the slick speedway and would power his way by Colby Copeland as he zeroed in on Kaeding who was now in second.

Racing in heavy traffic, Hirst would be unable to get to Kaeding to challenge for the position, as he capped his Asparagus Cup with a third place finish.

"We fought some little issues all weekend long, but we are getting everything ironed out and really gaining on it," Hirst said. "Big thanks to all of the people who help us out, and all of the guys who bust their butt's at the track."

PETERSEN MEDIA:Long hours and late nights came finally came to fruition on Saturday night for the Tiner Hirst Enterprise team, as Kyle Hirst guided the No. 94 entry to an eighth place finish during the team's 2019 debut on Saturday night at Placerville Speedway.

"It was great to get back to the track, but I definitely felt a little out of shape," Hirst said with a smile. "We had a good car, and it was a hard fought eighth place finish after starting back in 14th."

With 32 cars on hand, Hirst opened the night up by timing the Tiner Hirst Enterprise/Larry Davis Farms/GP Development backed no. 94 machine in fifth quickest in his time trial group.

Lining up fifth in his heat race, the Paradise, CA driver would go to work in his heat race, as his fourth place finish would be enough to propel him directly into the 35-lap Sprint Car Challenge Tour feature event.

On the rough and tumble speedway, Hirst would get off to a slow start as he would be mired in traffic and looked to keep his nose clean in what was a wild opening half of the race.

Working his way into the Top-10, Hirst would get the elbows up as he battled with Ryan Bernal and Ryan Robinson. Able to clear that duo, Hirst would find himself battling hard with Tony Gualda and Justin Sanders in the race's closing laps.

Getting all he could out of the immaculate THE No. 94, Hirst capped the team's firs night out with an eighth place finish.

"We have good speed, and we want to be better than eighth, but we did all we could on Saturday," Kyle Hirst said. "Good first night out, I shook off some rust, and I am looking forward to doing it again with all of these guys."

Kyle Hirst Closes 2018 Out With King of the West Series and Sprint Car Challenge Tour Championships

PETERSEN MEDIA- Closing out Roth Motorsports' 25th year of operation, Kyle Hirst made it a memorable one, as he was successful in claiming his fourth career King of the West Series Championship as well as his second Sprint Car Challenge Tour Championship as both series' had their final event of the season Saturday night in Stockton, CA.

"On a personal note it is pretty cool to win two championships in one year, its something that I have never done before," Kyle Hirst said. "I owe it all to Dennis and Teresa Roth as they put me in a great position to do this. Todd Ventura has supported me non stop over the years, and Cori Guy and Michael Helwig busted their butt's for me all year to really make this a special season."

Having issues in the Sprint Car Challenge Tour feature after racing out of the semi, Hirst's body of work would still prove good enough to earn his second consecutive SCCT title as he remains the only driver to ever win the upstart series' championship.

With the point battle tight in KWS action, Hirst would come out strong as he timed the Roth Enterprises/HR Livestock Transportation/Roth Investments backed entry in second fastest in qualifying time trials.

Picking up a second place finish in his heat race, Hirst moved into the Dash where he would end up winning his first KWS Dash of the season and find himself on the front row of the final 30-lap feature of the season as he lined up alongside Shane Golobic who was his challenger for the point championship.

Getting out to the early lead, Hirst would actually clinch the title on the race's seventh lap as misfortune ended Golobic's night.

Focused on picking up his 13th win of the season, Hirst would jump on the hammer after the lap seven red, and would open up a very sizeable lead as he left much of the field in his wake.

A late caution flag would bunch the field back up, and the ensuing restart would see Hirst and Rico Abreu duke it out for the top spot. Thrilling the crowd for a pair of laps, Abreu would get the better of Hirst, but Hirst would still finish second a celebrate a pair of championships when the night wrapped up.

"We definitely did not want to see that late yellow, but it is part of this sport," Hirst added. "Rico Abreu has been really good since coming back home so we will take the second and enjoy these two championships. Again, it means a lot to get the Roth family some more hardware, and again I cannot thank them enough for continuing to stand behind me."

PETERSEN MEDIA- One week removed from a violent accident at Kern County, Kyle Hrist and Roth Motorsports were back in action in Hanford, CA for the 33rd Annual Cotton Classic where Hirst would charge to a fourth place finish with the Sprint Car Challenge Tour before coming up just short with the King of the West Series as he finished second in that feature event.

"We had a couple of really good racecars, and I have to thank my Roth Motorsports team for working their butt's off for me," Kyle Hirst said. "I had a good run with the SCCT but didn't quite have enough for the Top-Three and I gave the 410ci feature event away on the final restart. We had good speed, and hoping we can be even better at Trophy Cup."

In the penultimate event for both series' in which he is the point leader in both as well, Hirst took another step closer to earning both titles as he kicked things off by timing in the Roth Enterprises/HR Livestock Transportation/Roth Investments entry in third fastest in his time trial group with the SCCT.

From the front row of his heat race, the Paradise, CA wheelman would finish third which would keep him from the Dash but safely put him in the 30-lap feature event.

Rolling off the starting grid from the sixth row, Hirst would go to work on an immaculately prepared surface in the feature event. Able to carve his way around the Keller Auto Speedway, Hirst would blaze through the Top-10 as he would get up into fourth.

Chasing after Rico Abreu, Shane Golobic and Dominic Scelzi, Hirst didn't quite have enough to get up and challenge for a podium position, though capped the night off with a great from 12th to fourth.

In KWS action, Hirst would get off to an even better start as he kicked his night off in the 410ci program by earning quick time honors as he looked to create separation between himself and Shane Golobic in the points battle.

Finishing third in his heat race again, Hirst would make himself eligible for the KWS Dash where his fourth place finish put him in the second row for the 30-lap Cotton Classic feature event.

Running fifth in the early goings of the 30-lap affair, Hirt would begin fighting his way forward on a lap restart.

Able to get by Golobic, Willie Croft, and Chase Johnson, Hirst began to pressure Mitchell Faccinto for the race lead just before the halfway point. A caution would hold up progress, but when the action resumed, Hirst would continue to stalk the leader as they got back into traffic.

Surging to the lead on the 18th lap, Hirst would quickly start to open up a comfortable lead as he looked to score Cotton Classic lore. Stretching his lead to nearly 3 seconds, a red flag with just three laps to go would change things up quite a bit.

With Faccinto on his rear bumper, Hirst would continue to stay glued to the bottom groove. On the white flag lap, Hirst would admittedly make a mistake in one and two missing his mark and it would allow Faccinto to make up a little time.

Going into three and four, Hirst would dive low again but as Faccinto went for it, he would make it stick out of four and would beat Hirst to the line as the Roth Motorsports team settled for second.

"I hate it for my guys, because we had a car that was good enough to win the race," Hirst said. "I missed my mark on the last lap and it cost us. Thanks to Dennis and Teresa Roth for their continued support, as well as everyone that supports our race team."

PETERSEN MEDIA- Getting back to his title hunt with the King of the West Series on Saturday night in Bakersfield, CA, Kyle Hirst would take a tough tumble on race's opening lap that has tightened the series championship hunt with just two races to go.

"I am just extremely thankful that my guys build me a safe car, and all of my safety components did their job," Kyle Hirst said. "I made a mistake coming to the green and off we went."

Saturday night at Kern County Raceway Park, Kyle Hirst got his night started off by timing the Roth Enterprises/HR Livestock Transportation/Roth Investments machine timed in eighth quickest in qualifying time trials.

Picking up the heat race win, the Paradise, CA driver would earn a spot in the nightly Dash where a third place finish put him in the third row to start the 30-lap feature event.

As the field came to the green flag, Hirst would admittedly get a little to high and come into contact with another competitor and it would result in him taking a very wild ride ending in the turn one fence.

Able to quickly escape the wreckage, Hirst's night would come to a bit of an early end.

"I hate it for my guys, and for the entire Roth Motorsports team," Kyle Hirst said. "Dennis and Teresa Roth give me a great opportunity and I know I will have two awesome cars ready to go this weekend in Hanford, CA."

PETERSEN MEDIA-Taking part in the final event of the year at Silver Dollar Speedway, Kyle Hirst and Roth Motorsports put a tough Friday night behind them as they bounced back to win the Fall Nationals finale in thrilling fashion on Saturday night.

"I hate that Sean Becker and I banged wheels there with a few laps to go racing for the lead, it definitely takes some of the fun out of this, but hats off to my guys for giving me a great car," Kyle Hirst said.

Following a Friday night that ultimately saw Roth Motorsports and Kyle Hirst finish 15th, the team came back looking to end their weekend on a high note as the Paradise, CA pilot timed the Roth Enterprises/HR Livestock Transportation/Roth Investments backed No. 83 entry in sixth quickest in qualifying flight No. 2.

Grabbing the in in his heat race, Hirst would move into the Dash where a third place finish put him in the second row for the 40-lap Fall Nationals feature event. Moving into second on the race's 13th lap, Hirst and Sean Becker would battle for the runner up position as they chased after race leader, Tony Gualda.

Reeling in Gualda, the duo would split Gualda on lap 16 with Becker getting the top spot, and Hirst continuing to run in second. Keeping Becker in his sights, Hirst would find something in the middle of the speedway that would see him close in on the race lead as the laps would down.

With Becker continuing to pound the top, Hirst continued to float the middle, and in traffic the race for the lead was on with less than five laps to go. With the two leaders battling a slower car on the 37th lap, Hirst stayed committed to the middle line, and as they ran three wide through turns one and two, close quarters racing would see the two leaders bang wheels.

Able to keep his car points straight, Hirst would take over the race lead, and go on to survive a feverish challenge by Justyn Cox to win the Fall Nationals and score his 12th win of the year in his 50th start of 2018 with Roth Motorsports.

"I hope the fans enjoyed the show," Hirst said. "It was a long night, and it got cold but that was a fun race to run. Big thanks to my guys for working so hard for me and to Dennis and Teresa Roth for all they do for myself and this team."

PETERSEN MEDIA-Returning to his winning ways in California, Kyle Hirst took another step towards pocketing his second consecutive Sprint Car Challenge Tour Championship as he picked up his second win of the season with series on Friday night at Placerville Speedway before finishing fourth during Saturday's Nor-Cal Posse Shootout finale.

"We really had a tough start to September with the Outlaws, so to grab a win during our first night racing without them was a huge shot in the arm for us," Kyle Hirst said. "Saturday night we just missed it, and I am not sure where but we still ended up with a very good weekend."

Friday night's Nor-Cal Posse Shootout opener saw the Paradise, CA driver open his night up by timing the Roth Enterprises/HR Livestock Transportation/Roth Investments machine in fourth fastest in his group which placed him on the front row of his heat race.

Grabbing the heat race win, Hirst moved into the nightly Dash where a fourth place finish placed him in the second row for the 35-lap feature event. Going green, Hirst would make a couple of quick moves to get into third before overtaking Joey Saldana for second.

Stalking race leader Mitchell Faccinto, Hirst was able to race his way into the lead on the 15th circuit. Leaving the field in his wake, the only thing that would slow Hirst on this night was a trio of late caution flags. With Justyn Cox showing him a nose wing on one restart, Hirst would change his line up in the remaining laps and go on to collect his 11th win of the 2018 season.

Looking to complete the weekend sweep, Hirst would return to Placerville Speedway on Saturday night and again get off to a nice start as he would time in fourth fastest again in his time trial group and again win his heat race.

By way of his Dash win, Hirst would lead the field to green for the final 35-lap feature event of the weekend, and would look very strong on the slicked off racing surface during the opening stanzas of the race.

Leading the first 12 laps, Hirst would see Sean Becker take over the race lead on the 13th lap as he fell to second and began battling with Justyn Cox and Tanner Thorson. Slipping back to fourth on the 22nd circuit, Hirst would do a great job of sticking in the Top-Five as he closed his weekend out with a fourth place finish.

"We were in position to cap our weekend off, but it got away from us at the end of the race," He added. "Huge thanks to Dennis and Teresa Roth, and everyone at Roth Motorsports for continuing to let us have some fun and providing us with great equipment."

PETERSEN MEDIA-After a two-week break, Kyle Hirst and his Roth Motorsports team returned to action in Northern California as they took part in the Tyler Wolf Memorial on Friday night in Chico, CA before running second in Placerville, CA on Saturday night during the Mark Forni Classic.

"First off I have to thank my guys Cori Guy and Michael Helwig for busting their buts on Saturday," Kyle Hirst said. "I made a mistake during the feature on Friday night and it led to a tore up racecar, and they busted their butt's to get us ready for Placerville."

Friday night's Tyler Wolfe Memorial marked the final 410ci event at Silver Dollar Speedway in Chico, CA until September's 65th Annual Gold Cup Race of Champions. Looking to get some last minute info before the big race and pay respects to the late Tyler Wolf, Hirst and company checked in and proceeded to time the Roth Enterprises/HR Livestock Transportation/Roth Investments machine in third quickest in time trials.

Running fourth in his heat race, the Paradise, CA driver would win the Dash and lead the field to green for the 25-lap feature event. When the race came to life, Hirst would jump out to the early lead as he would be flanked by the likes of Tanner Thorson and Andy Forsberg.

Leading nearly the first half of the race, Hirst would feel pressure from Thorson on a lap 11 restart. As Hirst rode the high side in turns three and four, he would misjudge it a little and hang his right rear off the racing surface and get sideways. Jumping on the throttle to straighten out, Hirst would shoot down the race track and collect a couple of other drivers and ultimately end his night.

With a beaten and battered Roth Motorsports entry, the team would spend much of the day getting the car repaired and ready for the 13th Annual Mark Forni Classic at Placerville Speedway.

Timing in second quickest on this night, Hirst would run second in his heat race and again find himself safely in the redraw. Finding himself with the three pill, Hirst would take the green flag from the second row as he searched for his second Forni Classic score.

When the race got underway, Hirst would settle into third where he would run for the first handful of laps until an on track incident put him in second. The ensuing restart would KH and Justyn Cox battle for the runner up position with Hirst slipping back into the show position.Settling into third, Hirst would chase after the lead duo of Justyn Cox and Shane Golobic as the field tip-toed around an extremely slick Placerville Speedway racing surface.

Running in third on the 17th lap, the caution would fly and it would bunch the field back up into double-file formation. Slipping back to fourth when the green flag was again displayed, Hirst would jump back into second on the 19th lap as he then felt immense pressure from Tanner Thorson.

Thorson and Hirst would battle hard during the final five-laps as Hirst was able to fend him off and take second when the dust settled on the race.

"Saturday night we kind of struggled to make grip on an extremely slick surface," Hirst said. "It was tough to get going forward, but we did a great job of putting ourselves in a good spot going into the feature and we hung on to second. Big thanks to Dennis and Teresa Roth for continuing to let us have some fun. It is a great time of the year in California and we will head down to the Key Classic this weekend and try again."
